You can see about 6 cops on him, he was on the ground. If 6 cops can't cuff that guy they need to find another profession. The taser was excessive force. And I heard that at least 2 of the cops were put on leave. Clearly there's a reason for that and it isn't a thank you for a job well done.
The taser is supposed to be used as a last resort, and in lieu of lethal force. Cuffing one guy simply does not warrant the use of the taser.
